And Another Haiku

A haiku for She Who Lost The Plot:

She Who Lost The Plot
I used to like your letters
But you're from Barnsley.

It's not bad for a first haiku.
Pablo Marmite

Not bad? It's great! I like a haiku- short to the point.

Yet Another Poem... Or Not

Attention

This is not a poem
I'm sorry that it rhymes,
but I'm typing with a rhythm,
I get from time to time
No, this is not a poem
So leave me alone.
Loominus Froot

So, not for Poetry Corner then? Pity. Cos not many of them rhyme at all!

Hey: Just Say

I never thought it could happen, but I have found an advert that is scarier than the AOL woman... the HSA advert! Especially the rabbit, it beats Connie's scary hair and freaky dress any day.

What purpose does the malevolent beast have? Why is it associated with health insurance? What's it doing in the laundry basket? Arrgggghhh!
Ninja Cow

It's a bizarre and slightly unnerving promo for sure... just look away.

Subatomic Genius There's no panic like the panic you feel when you've got your hand or head stuck in something. I've gotta be more careful in the future!

You're a liability, you are.

Miss Saigon The Sixth WLW, I think I love you, so what am I so afraid of?

You're afraid that you're not sure, a love there is no cure for.

Jezza WLW, I sleep with a grey, smily elephant cushion called Harry in my bed. Does that scare you?

Very much so!

A Mind of My Own

I hope that celebrated songstress Victoria Beckham is happy with her new ditty, currently residing in numerous record outlets throughout this great country. She is a credit to the nation and her sporty spouse must be proud.

Perhaps her next tune could be dedicated to myself- I would even dress up to appear in the video. I'm sure she'd be heartily impressed by the medals festooned on my velvet tunics.
The Brigadier

I doubt she even knows what festooned means, Briggy.

Boybands

Yes, I know bands like Westlife are the spawn of Satan, but everyone likes at least one boyband.

Broccoli has a rather worrying Take That obsession and I can't decide between O-Town and a1, but it's true what I said on Zine a few years ago... EVERY boyband has a !rock" member! Except Westlife, obviously, where they are all identical muppets!
Fluffy The Evil One

Can't decide between O-Town and a1? You serious? The a1 boys, surely?

To Rusty Regan

Hey! I have put you in a list. It is my People Who Complain No One Notices Them After Writing Two Completely Unnoticable And Unremarkable Letters List:
1 Rusty Regan.
That is all. Oh noes! I am turning into a bitter Princess Psycho cliche! I will have to unleash the obscure Anime referebces on myself. Again.

Cake Or Bisc

Kindly refrain from a) attempting to set me up as I am married to TheUnitedTruth and we have been a happy couple for many a year, b) from shortening my name. I have three syllables for a reason. Oh yeah, c) from writing in.
Elden Ray

Ouch.

To Cake Or Bisc

Elden Ray and Mondo would be an unsuitable couple, as Elden Ray is worth at least 100 Mondos (now there's a scary thought.) Besides, Mondo is old enough to be Elden's great-grandfather. If Mondo is going to lurve anyone from Zine, i think he is more suited to Daddypoos. Also, what happened to your wit?

So, when do you get to the "Goodwill to all men" part?

Biskwit

Careful what you say about Princess Psycho. Last time I called her PP she sent round the Viking Hordes. They dissed the three-piece suite, the carpet and the fridge freezer. Once they got indoors however, they were fine.
Mondo

If I recall correctly, wasn't it "Pee Pee", not PP? I know you hate to get pedantic, though.

Zine Is Famous

As I got up stupidly early one Sunday morning, to get ready for Battle of The Bands in a nearby north Worcestershire h*llhole, I heard a conversation about favourite Teletext pages on Pete and Geoff.

Guess what? Zine was mentioned, as was WLW! Sadly, they did mock, calling it "the centre of bad teenage poetry", but you can't win them all.
Toodles, Fishmonger of Doom

Yay! All publicity is good publicity. So, who are Pete and Geoff then?

The Torture Garden Does anyone read Angst every day, just waiting for Dr Nick to reply: "Ha ha, you loser"?

And I thought it was just me waiting for that.

Styluskid Jesus is coming, look busy.

We're always busy at the Towers.

Melted Suffragette Undertaker I know Concrete Donkey! He lives in an old lady's front garden down my road! There are pansies growing out of him! I am using too many exclamation marks!

And you've given me a headache.

Do The Weasel Dance

Good grief, the kraken has awoken.

My sister was a bit miffed about me feeding her dog food. I think she should be grateful, her hair is nice and shiny and I'm sure having a wet nose is a sign of good health.

Still, she did come out worse when she tried to chase my cat. The stitches will come out in a few days, though.
Princess Psycho

Let this be a lesson to you, giraffelets. I prescribe a Zapple or two.

the doc:

Rayanne Graff: His name is George. Also, he started Spam.

Rayanne Graff: i spoke to him a couple of times and that was in October of 2009.

the doc: Wow, a proper old head

Rayanne Graff: Yeah, he was the 15th person to join.

satansrubberduck: I didn't directly start Spam. Also the proof of that long since disappeared.

Rayanne Graff: No, it didn't; the Spam spam spam you made in 2002 is on page 105 of the Spam board.

satansrubberduck: Oh. I looked for it years ago and couldn't find it. The colour tags are (thankfully) broken.

satansrubberduck: Odd to think it's been over a decade since I first got involved with 'Zine.

Claire: It's not odd to me since I've just had the exact same conversation with you...

I Cunt Spell: YOU'RE ALL OLD

I Cunt Spell: SO VERY VERY OLD

Captain Stupendo: SRD made an appearence holy moly haven't seen him on here for years
